Definitions
- the present invention relates to a transmitter power varying device for varying the transmitter power over a wide dynamic range, and particularly relates to a transmitter power varying device for use in, for instance, a mobile telephone set of a cellular telephone system in which the power consumption is an important item to be addressed.
- FIG. 12 shows an example of a conventional transmitter power varying device.
- An IF signal that is output from an IF signal oscillator 1 is modulated by an IF signal modulator 2 and then subjected to transmitter power varying control by an IF band variable gain amplifier 3.
- An output of the amplifier 3 is mixed, by an up-converter mixer 4, with a local frequency signal of a local signal oscillator 5.
- An output of the mixer 4 is amplified by a RF amplifier 6, then power-amplified by a power amplifier 7, and finally transmitted from an antenna 9 via an antenna duplexer 8.
- the IF stage covers the entire variable range.
- the conventional transmitter power varying device since the power amplifier performs a class-A (or class-AB) operation as described above, the consumption current cannot be reduced though the transmitter power can be made much smaller than in an analog-mode operation; that is, the above transmitter power varying device operates with very low power conversion efficiency. Further, since the conventional transmitter power varying device is required to cover a dynamic range of more than 80 dB, there remain difficult problems in connection with the characteristics of the variable gain amplifier, such as the linearity of the control characteristic, temperature dependence, distortion characteristic, noise characteristic, and consumption current characteristic.
- the present invention has been made to solve the above problems in the art, and has an object of providing a transmitter power varying device which can improve the control characteristic and greatly reduce the power consumption while a transmitter is operating in a digital mode.
- a transmitter power varying device comprising a variable gain amplifier for amplifying a transmission signal with a variable gain; a power amplifier for amplifying the transmission signal to produce an output signal which is to be transmitted from an antenna; a bypass line provided parallel with the power amplifier; and first and second high-frequency signal changeover switches respectively provided upstream and downstream of the power amplifier and the bypass line, for causing the transmission signal to go through the bypass line while bypassing the power amplifier in reducing a power of the output signal below a first threshold value, wherein the gain of the variable gain amplifier is increased to compensate for a gain reduction due to bypassing of the power amplifier.
- variable gain range of the variable gain amplifier can be reduced by the gain of the power amplifier, thus facilitating the designing of the variable gain amplifier.
- the power amplifier may be made off while it is bypassed.
- the power consumption of the power amplifier which conventionally amounts for 80-90% of that of the transmission system, can be reduced greatly.
- the power consumption is greatly reduced during actual operation of a mobile telephone set.
- the first and second high-frequency signal changeover switches may cause the transmission signal to go through the power amplifier in increasing the power of the output signal above a second threshold value that is larger than the first threshold value, to provide a hysteretic output control characteristic.
- This configuration is effective to prevent switching from occurring too frequently around the threshold value as well as to prevent chattering.
- An isolator or a resistive attenuator may be provided in the bypass line. This is effective to prevent feedback-loop oscillation that might otherwise occur when the isolation of the high-frequency signal changeover switches is insufficient.
- a circulator may be connected to the output side of the isolator and to the output side of the power amplifier via the second high-frequency signal changeover switch, wherein the second high-frequency signal changeover switch is so constructed as to selectively connect the output side of the isolator to the output side of the power amplifier or a ground side via the circulator.
- the second high-frequency signal changeover switch is so constructed as to selectively connect the output side of the isolator to the output side of the power amplifier or a ground side via the circulator.
- the invention can be applied to any of a case of using a RF-stage variable gain amplifier with carrier direct modulation, a case of using an IF-stage variable gain amplifier with IF-stage modulation, and a case of using both of an IF-stage and RF-stage variable gain amplifiers with IF-stage modulation.
- the above advantages can be obtained in each case.

- FIG. 12 is a block diagram showing a general configuration of a conventional transmitter power varying device.
- FIG. 1 shows a general configuration of a transmitter power varying device according to a first embodiment of the invention.
- This transmitter power varying device is incorporated in a transmitter section of a mobile telephone set of a cellular telephone system.
- reference numeral 11 denotes a high-frequency signal oscillator for generating a signal to be transmitted; 12, a modulator for modulating the transmission signal into a signal suitable for radio communication; 13, a variable gain amplifier for controlling, i.e., varying the gain of the transmission signal; 15, a power amplifier for amplifying the transmission signal; 14, a front-stage high-frequency signal changeover switch for supplying the transmission signal to the power amplifier 15 or causing it to bypass the power amplifier 15 by using predetermined threshold values as references; 16, a rear-stage high-frequency signal changeover switch that operates in link with the changeover switch 14; 17, a bypass line that is connected to the front-stage and rear-stage high-frequency signal changeover switches 14 and 16; 18, an antenna duplexer for switching between an outgoing transmission signal and an incoming
- the bypass line 17 is generally an impedance-matched line. It is usually a shielded line having a characteristic impedance of 50 ⁇ , and specifically a coaxial feeder line or strip line of 50 ⁇ .
- FIG. 2 shows a relationship between a control voltage V c , of the variable gain amplifier 13 and a transmitter power P out .
- Symbol P max represents the maximum output of the mobile telephone set. If a first output value (subjected to open-loop control) falls within a range of P max to P max -35 dBm, connection is made to the power amplifier 15 side in the high-frequency signal changeover switches 14 and 16 and the power amplifier 15 is turned on.
- the threshold value for a variation from point (4) to (5) where the transmitter power P out increases and that for a variation from point (1) to (2) where the transmitter power P out decreases are different from each other by 10 dB. This is to prevent switching from occurring too frequently around the threshold value as well as to prevent chattering.
- the cellular telephone system standard provides that the interval of the output power level switching be not shorter than 1.25 ms, whereas the switching time of the high-frequency signal changeover switches 14 and 16 is less than about 10 ⁇ s, the control response time of the variable gain amplifier 13 is less than about 20 ⁇ s, and the response time of the power amplifier 15 is less than about 30 ⁇ s. Therefore, no abnormal transient responses will occur.
- the high-frequency signal changeover switch 20D When the power amplifier 15 is in an on-state, the high-frequency signal changeover switch 20D is switched to the power amplifier 15 side to connect it to the circulator 20C, whereby a transmission signal is introduced from the power amplifier 15 to the antenna duplexer 18.
- the high-frequency signal changeover switch 20D When a transmission signal is to go through the bypass line 17, the high-frequency signal changeover switch 20D is switched to the ground side, whereby the circulator 20C is grounded.
- a transmission signal that has passed through the isolator 20A goes through the circulator 20C, and is then reflected by the ground. The transmission signal is then introduced to the antenna duplexer 18 via the circulator 20C.
- FIG. 6 shows a general configuration of a transmitter power varying device according to a fifth embodiment of the invention.
- reference numeral 21 denotes an IF signal oscillator for generating a signal to be transmitted; 22, an IF signal modulator; 23, an IF band variable gain amplifier; 24, an up-converter mixer; 25, a local signal oscillator; 26, a RF amplifier; 27, a front-stage high-frequency signal changeover switch; 28, a power amplifier; 29, a rear-stage high-frequency signal changeover switch; 30, a bypass line; 31, an antenna duplexer; and 32, an antenna.
- the above components are controlled by a CPU control section (not shown).
- the transmitter power varying device of this embodiment operates basically in the same manner as the devices of the first to third embodiments, and operates differently from those devices in the following points.
- An IF signal that is output from the IF signal oscillator 21 is modulated by the IF signal modulator 22, and then subjected to transmitter power varying control by the IF band variable gain amplifier 23.
- An output of the amplifier 23 is mixed with a local frequency signal of the local signal oscillator 25 by the up-converter mixer 24.
- An output of the mixer 24 is amplified by the RF amplifier 26.
- FIG. 7 shows a general configuration of a transmitter power varying device according to a sixth embodiment of the invention.
- This embodiment is different from the fifth embodiment in that the RF amplifier 26 is replaced by a RF band variable gain amplifier 33. Because the variable gain amplifier is divided into the IF stage and the RF stage, this embodiment provides advantages that the up-converter mixer 24 can be implemented as an IC more easily and that a large C/N ratio can be obtained.
- the changeover switches are of a SPDT (single-pole double-throw) type.
- SPDT single-pole double-throw
- a pair of SPST (single-pole single-throw) switches or a pair of simple on/off switches may naturally be used. This configuration may reduce the cost of parts used.
- a quarter-wavelength bypass line may be used as shown in FIGS. 9A and 9B.
- This embodiment is effective when the bandwidth used is narrow and hence the gain of the power amplifier 15 or 28 to be bypassed is not large.
- non-reflective SPST switches may be used.
- a simple bandpass filter may be provided in the bypass line as shown in FIGS. 10A-10C.
- the bandpass filter is constituted by a single, independent part.
- the bandpass filter consists of general-purpose parts. These configurations improve the out-of-band isolation, so that the operation of the device becomes more stable, that is, the feedback-loop oscillation becomes less likely to occur.
- the simple configurations of FIGS. 10B and 10C enable cost reduction.
- An isolator 34 that is used conventionally is not described in the first to ninth embodiments.
- it is used in the invention to improve the stability of the power amplifier 15 or 28 with respect to a load variation and to prevent transmitter IM (intermodulation)
- it is inserted upstream of a terminal T x of the antenna duplexer 31 as shown in FIG. 11. This is also effective in improving the stability with respect to a load variation of the previous-stage amplifier provided upstream of the power amplifier 15 or 28 in a state that switching is made to the bypass line 17 or 30.
